Build Windows 7 + eclipse + BlackBerry Java Plug + jdk6 In the BlackBerry Development Environment

I have been idle for a while recently, so I learned how to develop BlackBerry. Of course, the first step of development is to build a development environment. Google has a few tutorials, but they are very old, probably because there are few BlackBerry developers in China. The advantage of Blackberry is its well-known security, so there are a group of loyal fans. In fact, I am not only a fan of apple but also a fan of blackberry, but also a fan of Android. Because there are a lot of Android fans in China, I should release Android first and study it later. Now, let's go back to the topic: Build the development environment.

First, we need to download something for preparation:

Download Eclipse: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ I downloaded eclipse
Classic 3.7, 174 MB, found that two versions are 64-bit, one is 32-bit, please be sure to download the 32-bit version here, whether your operating system is 64-bit or not.

Download BlackBerry Java Plug: The http://us.blackberry.com/developers/javaappdev/javaplugin.jsp says on this page why download the 32-bit version of eclipse (Note: 64-bit
Versions require 32-bit Java and eclipse ).

Download jdk6: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html so far (2011.9.17) the latest version is 7, but we have to download Java
Se 6 Update 27 I failed to download the 7 results.

After the preparation is complete, let's start the installation: First extract eclispe to a place, usually on the d disk. Install JDK and double-click "Run belackberry Java Plug" to start installation. During the installation process, select the root directory of eclispe. I created a new BlackBerry directory that is similar to eclipse, for example:

After installation, you must prompt whether to enable plug. Click here to enable and configure BlackBerry eclipse.

Now you have installed the environment successfully. The next article introduces how to write a helloworld.
